Breaker Wheated Bourbon Whiskey

Breaker Wheated Bourbon Whiskey is a smooth and mellow expression from Breaker, a California-based craft distillery that produces small-batch bourbons with a focus on balance and complexity. By using wheat instead of rye as the secondary grain in the mash bill, this bourbon emphasizes sweetness and softness, creating a rounded profile that appeals to both newcomers and seasoned bourbon drinkers.

Aged in new charred American oak barrels, Breaker Wheated Bourbon develops a warm amber color and layered flavors shaped by the coastal California climate. The nose opens with inviting aromas of caramel, vanilla, and honey, accented by a touch of oak and dried fruit. On the palate, it is velvety and approachable, delivering flavors of toffee, butterscotch, and roasted nuts, with gentle spice in the background. The finish is smooth and lingering, marked by sweetness and a touch of oak char.

This bourbon is versatile—delightful neat or on the rocks, yet it also elevates cocktails like an Old Fashioned or Whiskey Sour with its softer, sweeter backbone. Breaker Wheated Bourbon Whiskey reflects the distillery’s craftsmanship and dedication to creating approachable, well-balanced bourbons with a distinctly Californian influence.
